Mantra 3
Sukta 9
यासां नाभिरारेहणं हृदि संवननं कृतम् । गावो घृतस्य मातरो ऽमूं सं वानयन्तु मे
yā́sāṁ nā́bhir āréhaṇaṁ hṛdí saṁvánanaṁ kṛtám | gā́vo ghṛtásya mā́taro ’mū́ṁ sáṁ vānayantu me
They whose navel is for licking, whose heart hath charmings wrought—let the cows, the mothers of the ghee, draw yonder one wholly unto me.
其脐为所舔舐，其心已作摄召之咒者——愿诸牛，酥油之母，将彼人完全牵引归我。
Rishi: Atharvanic tradition (seer attribution varies by anukramaṇī)
Devata: Gāvaḥ / Ghṛta (maternal bovine power as the operative agency of attraction)
